Events usually occur twice a year around April and September. Each event stands alone, with running themes being propagated from one to the next. Participants may adopt different characters at each event with only the fictional setting and game format remaining the same. This allows for players to vary their experiences and miss events without penalty.

Criminal Contact is a unique open world roleplay event based around a functioning economy, where characters supply and demand various items for players to trade, transport, smuggle or steal. While players may ‘unlock’ airsoft firearms to use at these events, it is important to note that firefights have consequences! In short, this is NOT a regular airsoft skirmish disguised with a theme.

Over 10 years – we had an initial run which was a 10 year campaign in our high fantasy campaign world of Tempress. After a hiatus we came up with low fantasy and horror events. Campaigning in Tempress has just restarted. This new game is set 10 years after the end of the initial campaign
What Makes Your Events Friendly to New Players?:
The referees and world gms do their best to give players background information and include them in plot. Although games are built as part of an ongoing campaign and continuity each event is self contained. So that you don’t need a lot of lore to participate. Role Playing and improvisation is encouraged

No commitment to attend all events. Normally we run around 2-4 events year.

Facilities are very good. Our games are catered for most meals – the extent of catering is made clear for each event. We always look for locations with good sleeping facilities. This normally means bunk rooms. And also bathrooms and showers. Most of the sites we play at also have disabled access.
Finally Tell us anything else you would like to about Your Game World, and How Your Events Work:
The majority of games are based in the campaign world of Tempress. This is a high fantasy world with player generated politics
We also run a low fantasy setting based roughly on Dark Ages England at the time of the Viking Raids
On occasion we run horror orientated events.

We are a low fuss game, player can turn up with a t shirt and jeans and still fit in with the game world. Our goals are to make a low cost player focused event, however, we are constantly building on the props and set dressing to make a world which people can not only get totally immersed in, but also help change!

Finally Tell us anything else you would like to about Your Game World, and How Your Events Work:
The world has changed. Two and a half years ago, technology failed, society collapsed and millions starved. Many of the survivors of the rioting and unforgiving first winter then fell to a virus, an unnatural disease that kept the body alive but destroyed the mind. Those few who remained began to fight over the few remaining resources.
However, there are some shining beacons of humanity scattered across the country. Places where simply waking up is not punctuated by the screams of the dying, either at the hands of Raiders, Shamblers, or something worse. Safety from the disease, starvation and jealousy. Such places are few, but as the world becomes more dangerous, we look to rebuild.
Come, take your place by the fire, share your story and live to fight another day.
